With Sikong Yue above him, Hou Yuxiao, although wary of the so-called Ding Dian and Fan Longhe, was truly not much worried about his own advancement into the mainstream circles.
The higher the people are, the less likely they are to break the rules, because they themselves benefit from the rules—something Hou Yuxiao was well aware of.
Sikong Yue's status was too high, especially knowing that her father was the first in the world, Sikong Xingzhou, Hou Yuxiao knew that the Hou Family's rise into the mainstream was all but secured.
In the Prison Admin Department, Hou Yuxiao had also come to understand that Ding Dian's way of making things difficult for him was just by having Cheng Yue challenge him. He wasn't worried about that, so he half-heartedly agreed to Cheng Yue's challenge, pretending to comply—the goal, of course, was to settle things once and for all.
In fact, compared to Ding Dian, what Hou Yuxiao was more concerned about were the local eight families' powers.
